Written by Hubert

This piece certainly makes my day. Lizard has always been my favourite Crimson album and I only wish Mr Fripp would be willing to issue a Lizard box with all the bits and takes that didn’t end up on the final product - like the Beach Boys did with Pet Sounds. I’m probably not the only one here who thinks those first four albums are the best. I’m inordinately fond of the subsequent Starless period, mind, but I consider Lizard a crowning achievement. Thank you, and keep them coming!

Good stuff   Sat., Jan 5, 2008
Posted by: JPrisco
I originally bought this download in mp3 format, and soon had it in high rotation -- it may have been the first 1971 show I heard. Now I count it right up there with Detroit, Plymouth and Summit Read more

Isn't that a lot like...?   Mon., Dec 31, 2007
Posted by: SSImuse
What’s most interesting about this cut is actually hearing how GG&F took the basic works parts from what was then known as "Mars: Bringer Of War" and with (later) Tippet’s, Fripp’skeyboard help and a few other overdubs turn it into what is now Read more

Drum[s] & Bass?   Wed., Nov 14, 2007

Hearing this track stripped down to its warts’n’all basics throws up all sorts of opportunies for mischief... I’m a great fan of Read more

Thanks - & a comment on spelling   Tue., Nov 13, 2007

Interesting document... Thanks for this, although the alternate take of "Cadence And Cascade" with Greg Lake on vocals from the other week will be hard to beat... Now, the comment - poor Andy, he has a long history of his name Read more

Drum Sound   Mon., Nov 12, 2007
Posted by: microbunny
I’ve always loved Andy’s drum sound on this record, in particular the sound of the toms.  I’d be interested to know what sort of kit he used on it.  I can understand the frustration due to the oddity of playing Read more

Lead Drums!!   Mon., Nov 12, 2007
Posted by: syncopatico
The huge drum sound captured on Lizard in 1970(!!) has always been one of the reasons it has been so influential on numerous musicians (especially drummers). The sonority of the drumkit recording and the performance(s) of Andy McCullogh were truly Read more

A Fascinating Snapshot   Thu., Nov 1, 2007
Posted by: emmapeelfanclub
Once again, a fascinating snapshot of unheard KC. Love the light hearted spirit here and makes interesting comparison to the earlier versions. This line up is my personal favourite - I enjoy Boz’s voice, Ian Wallace’s drumming and Mel Collins Read more

Actually studio version 4   Tue., Oct 30, 2007
Posted by: mannylunch
Well, I continually praise the great unknown spirit - that no man should speak for - that keeps me alive to discover treats that continually emerge in retrospect, whether from official sources, or otherwise - like museums Read more

When I first heard the Epitaph box set (10 years ago?) this song was an instant favorite.  Nice surprise to hear this Islands rehearsal in the arKchives.  Thanks!!! Read more
